Soc System On Chip Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official Microchip documentation to confirm the industrial temperature grade (-40°C to 100°C) and package type. Ensure that power supply sequencing adheres to the recommended operating conditions, particularly regarding the VPP charge pump voltage requirements for programming and operation.

Soc System On Chip Selection Notes

Select this component when a combined MCU and FPGA solution is required within the SmartFusion 2 family. Confirm that the 27,696 logic element density meets design complexity needs. Verify compatibility with the 325-LFBGA/FCBGA footprint and ensure thermal management strategies account for the specified junction-to-air thermal resistance values under expected load conditions.

Soc System On Chip Part Context

This part belongs to the SmartFusion 2 SoC FPGA family, which combines an ARM Cortex-M3 processor with a flash-based FPGA fabric. The 'TS' designation indicates the inclusion of data security features, while the '1' suffix denotes the industrial temperature grade. It shares architectural similarities with the IGLOO 2 FPGA series but includes the additional microcontroller subsystem.

Soc System On Chip Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements within the same package and pinout include other densities in the SmartFusion 2 series, such as the M2S010TS or M2S050TS variants, provided the logic resource requirements are met. Cross-family migration to IGLOO 2 devices requires verification of peripheral availability, as IGLOO 2 lacks the integrated Cortex-M3 MSS.
